What are people’s approaches to washing cars? It seems the options are:

  • Wash at home on grass (not an option for us)
  • Wash at home on the driveway (technically allowed where I am, but pollutes the rivers, although may be OK if you can find an eco wash and wax product?)
  • Go to an auto car wash (not too expensive, but likely to scratch up your car)
  • Pay someone for a hand wash (costs hundreds)

I just washed our car on the driveway, and tried to minimise run-off going into storm water, but it didn’t work that well. Have found this product, but no idea if it’s any good, or greenwashing.

Any other ideas?

    Alright, alright it is technically my first post with this account as my other account is with lemmy.world.

    I did joke about not having a black car to lighten the mood. Should I use emoji to ensure that no one is offended? Did I not engage in your post with my opinion on the actual subject?

    Report me to the mods then mate. That’ll teach the first poster a lesson right?

      If asking if this was a promo was meant as a joke, then yes an emoji or other indication would have made that clearer.

      If it was a joke, then that’s totally fine - I didn’t read it as a joke initially which is why I reacted the way I did. I definitely didn’t mean to make you feel unwelcome here, sorry if I did.
